Let's move this along, future boy
(lemmy.world)
pls no more punchlines in the title!
They had been saying this over at that other site for like 13 years before I left.
I’m sure it’ll work out here though.
If I browsed these types of joke-sharing communities more often, I'd petition community mods to create a rule against it. I don't think that's too harsh.
Haha yeah my first reaction was wtf are we back to this now?
Bet he pays with a check.
Exact change
Out of a coin purse
Still went faster tho
All pennies
We don't have pennies anymore in the first world.
I'm good at counting pennies
"What, your fancy future store too good to accept my assorted animal pelts and sifted gold pebbles as currency?!"
I keep 3 forms of payment on me for this reason. Phone, card, cash, in that order.
Edit: Within 30 minutes of making this comment, I was at a Walmart. No NFC payment. The machine didn't like my card. Now I have 2 quarters and a penny in my pocket.
The register's down sir, we can only accept payment in the form of interpretive dance convincingly communicating your burning desire for the chosen products.
Tips in the form of jazz hands are always appreciated, but never expected.
I'm buying a 24-pack of beer so I guess I'll communicate my burning desire with some Chumbawamba
They're never gonna keep YOU down!
The interpretive dance is much better afterwards.
Phone, card, gun, cash in that order
How many cheeseburgers can you get for 1 gun?
As many as you’d like, depending on several constraints which include how long it takes for someone to stop you, how many you can carry, and how fast they are able to produce cheeseburgers.
Also tuesdays are cheeseburger day in county jail.
That’s my retirement plan sorted then
no... nfc.... payment??? wtf
is that an American thing or what?
That's a Walmart thing. They wanted to compete with Apple over contactless payments thing and Walmart invested in tech that uses QR codes. No one ever partnered with Walmart so they now use their QR payment tech in house.
Kroger too—no tap payments. Instead, you have to use their Kroger app's QR code. It sucks
Sometimes people forget their wallets at home…
Time to deploy the prison wallet
Apple watch owners making up stories to justify their purchase (this is a joke)
How to make people envious of your amazing Apple product: tell them it wouldn't work and caused an inconvenience for everyone.
But if I don't hold up everyone they wouldn't even pay attention to my new watch!
Then everyone clapped?
they just like me fr
This is the perfect level of grumpy old man.
"Why are you suddenly in a rush, sir? Life has clearly already passed you by.
Hey, uh, just between you and me, what was Alexander Hamilton really like?"
Lmao
I was expecting a Back to the Future gif...
I heard the Elderly Man's words in the voice of Kris Kristofferson's Whistler character from the Blade movies.
Terrific call. I definitely heard something similar!
Honestly I wonder how well these PTP payments would work in my home state considering how now one used them and phones are infomas for not working on top of a lot of places being cash only so I can only imagine how few places can even except g pay
How many different payment methods does the world need? Is this efficiency or just another skimming scam lol
could give a flying f' about punchline in title. must be a reddit aftertaste
